make the contraband locker into a secure boobytrapped crate with a puzzle. there are already locked evidence lockers for captured shit that get used just as often. security should be able to use what they're given and eat the consequences of misuse or overuse - I tend with san's opinion in the origi...

A is cleaner and still leaves a lot of freedom if an AI picks an interpretation and sticks to it. In the example with B, that law still implies a need for the AI to be there and active to be able to prevent human harm. It should not be considered purged. Something like "THERE ARE 7 HUNGRY MACAB...

nobody's going to go to basil for this alone. pop has gravity. basil has a small, personal pop and a niche as a more chill lowpop spot for the people who hang out there, sometimes newer players wanting to test stuff out, and sibyl players are following the pop, not the rules (as in the ruleset - not...

sorry, but only sane and reasonable characters are allowed on the rp server
if you want to rp on the rp server, you are insane
you are therefore excluded from the rp server

we call this the Catch-Terry-2

If Yobro reads this, general piece of advice: Put the main points you want somebody to take action on up front, at the end, and keep the middle limited to the stuff that supports those points (primacy and recency effects.) In this case, lead with something like "I want this ban lifted or the no...

nothing about rushing the vault for gamer gear every round is or should be protected. you get stung doing it and not being interested to play outside of being able to do it. it's persistent, lame, and involves messing with the vault (source of several antag targets) preemptively and then leaving the...

Better for feedback if anything but mostly seems like an unwillingness to accept the ruling based on what seems to have been sound reasoning on Dunham's part across both rounds. Should be reformatted into feedback or closed with Rule 10 and an admonition against using complaints like this.

-snip- This is some bullshit. The ban was founded on literally incorrect evidence. Throw it all out and give this person a clean record. The admin's failure to do due diligence should not be rewarded. This should be the policy going forward for situations like this, as rare as it is. not to put it ...

Fun, fast, and fair in all the tickets I've had with her as a player - quick to help and supportive as an admin - knows how to make a round both insane and entertaining with her events.

I could also see bumping heretics again with how they seem to have been doing - especially with Spies displacing some of the threat that previously went towards progtots going dummy at any point they appeared (rather than now being without progression as latejoin/midrounds,) the one roundstart heret...

you'll tend to get diminishing returns off of more servers - people want to be where the people are, and the people that they know. SR ran both a separate 'action' and 'HRP' server, neither ever got more than a handful of people after their initial bump of interest, neither ever resurged. the most l...

network effects are powerful - pop attracts pop the "rule of cogs" is also powerful - it becomes increasingly difficult to get any one input to do the kind of work you want the more things it's coupled up to, and the character of that one "working component" becomes a lot more cr...

Why /do/ the brig cells border the public area. fascinating thing to consider: around the time of Box and the brig with its cells and windows facing out to a hall, it was still the case that security could be antags, cloning existed, and there were very many fewer self-evident antags (inherent abil...

I suppose, is it better to assume where a role is absent on the list to treat it as restricted or unrestricted? Personally, I think we should treat anything not on the list as restricted until stated otherwise. This seems reasonable to me, honestly, this just came up with fucking Frieza. If Frieza ...

this is a momentous day - where is the momentous man Monathon Mupta?

who's in the Gupta blunt rotation?

-guh- bwuh? the point is that it's not failRP to ignore bad things being done to somebody else, even if you're OOCly unaware that it's what you're doing, when you consider how people deal with exposures to atrocities and authorized abuse IRL it's also the case that a lot of people might just not no...

Spies dont really have any roleplay rules at the moment, so I want to open this thread to discuss what they can and can’t do. Like can a spy kill the captain for their id to steal more things? Regardless of outcome they should be put on the table with other antags. restricted antag on MRP as far as...

we're in it. where's jonathon gupta?

Perception Check

What's the "Pleeb" situation

it might be worth peeling apart here a few things: 1. Gupta's warning about "Don't come in here or you will die" was about four minutes after the det had been killed 2. there was no interaction between gupta and the det, or gupta and other sec that got involved, besides apparently with Che...

this is going to be a fun logdive preliminary thoughts are that if you tell somebody "I'm going to kill you if you do this" and they run it straight down at you to then get killed, making good on your threat at that point is valid, restriction or no - that meets the test for relaxed escala...

this restores my faith in the appeals process

has been a model to have been adminning alongside

Not to peanut this, but to make sure it's clear that admins are allowed to consider conduct in other servers:

just because a word isn't banned doesn't mean that being a dick is fine, but I think this is one word we should leave behind. "schizo" is problematic both for its eye-rolling FOTM status as well as its association with a terrible, debilitating, and often stigmatized condition. "retard...

I like it in testing - one thing that might be nice is making disarms apply easier on shoving or attacking prone opponents.

What would Johnathon Gupta think of an in-universe version of the Player's Club used by all the people on the station after or during work each day

What would he post

Would he post?

this needs to stop i have a solution: one meta thread at a time, just like /tg/ except our threads never delete so it'll be up to the nutter with the last meta thread to abandon it or delete it to pass on the throne j nominate The Gupta Corner except we delete it and immediately lock it upon reachin...

this is cool as Hell, and I'm glad you did it - reminds me of the storytiems/LPs we used to have on the old forums.

seconding on this: if they're they're making use of what the role offers them (loads of cool abilities to be a spooky evil blade-dancing bastard,) let them kill and enjoy relative impunity about stacking up bodies. even more than changeling or progtot, they're channeled towards becoming an ultimate ...

yes, do it, slow them down. they're a pain in the ass and have massive mobility advantages in other areas that only make a tradeoff like this more reasonable.

yeah it's fine "adolf" isn't trying to smuggle anything in. It's too loud to be a racist dogwhistle, and it's a perfectly normal name in the language tradition it comes from - it's more of an english-speaking world historical response to stop obvious German-affiliated cultural expression i...

The question is "Does the station facing a major existential threat lower the threshold for the Fuck Around, Find Out rule?" absolutely, and I apologize for treating it too broadly if that's what this situation was unambiguously dealing with. If the issue here is people trolling or delibe...

You may begin IC conflicts with another player if it does not excessively interfere with their ability to do their job. While you are allowed to escalate conflicts, if it leads to violence and you have poor IC reasoning for inciting it, you may face administrative action. Killing a crewmate is a se...
